I've once again seen the bird I reported as a Red-shouldered Hawk in Two Rivers County Park earlier this summer. This time I was equiped with optics and now I know that I was wrong on the ID. Ouch. It's either a weirdly plumaged Red-tailed Hawk or maybe even some kind of hybrid, but it's NOT a Red-shouldered Hawk.
